Title:
  Installation of Labyrinth fails with no error message given

Status in “software-center” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  When I try to install the Labyrinth mind-mapping software (labyrinth
  0.4.1-0ubuntu5 as indicated in the Software Center), it appears to
  install at first, except the progress bar fills up very rapidly then
  goes back to being an "Install" button, with no visible explanation
  given of why the installation failed.

  Trying to install Labyrinth from apt-get in a terminal also fails,
  producing the following output:

  christopher@Xyz:~$ sudo apt-get install labyrinth
  Reading package lists... Done
  Building dependency tree
  Reading state information... Done
  Some packages could not be installed. This may mean that you have
  requested an impossible situation or if you are using the unstable
  distribution that some required packages have not yet been created
  or been moved out of Incoming.
  The following information may help to resolve the situation:

  The following packages have unmet dependencies:
   labyrinth : Depends: python-numeric but it is not installable
  E: Unable to correct problems, you have held broken packages.

  Update: I am also getting this problem now with a few other more
  important packages; please see comments below.
